Seven Ghosts
Oxford University Press
978-0-19-386008-7 (ISBN)
for SATB, solo soprano, brass quintet, piano, and percussion
A brilliant choral celebration of seven American legends (Phillis Wheatley, George Washington, Jenny Lind, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Clyde William Thornbaugh, Charles Lindbergh, Louis Armstrong). Energetic and appealing, the music culminates in a wordless finale which celebrates Louis Armstrong and the jazz clubs of the 1930s by mixing up six familiar classics.
Libby Larsen (b. 24 December 1950, Wilmington, Delaware) is one of America's most prolific and most performed living composers. Her catalogue of over 200 works spans virtually every genre from intimate vocal and chamber music to massive orchestral and choral scores. Her music has been praised for its dynamic, deeply inspired, and vigorous contemporary American spirit. Constantly sought after for commissions and premieres by major artists and orchestras around the world, Libby Larsen has established a permanent place for her works in the concert repertory.
I. Grace & Glory (Phillis Wheatley to George Washington) ; II. Jenny Lind to Harriet Beecher Stowe ; III. Blinking Pluto (Clyde William Tombaugh) ; IV. Myself with Wings (Charles A. Lindbergh) ; V. United Hot Clubs of America (Louis Armstrong)
